Summary

Because love is the greatest mystery of all....

Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime with this magical romantic comedy from the best-selling author of Me and Mr Darcy.

'In a way, I'm a bit of a love detective. Because what's a greater mystery than love?'

Meet Ruby Miller. A writer who makes happy-ever-afters happen. Until she discovers her fiancé is a lying cheat and loses her faith in love. So when her sister invites her on a beach holiday to Goa to forget about him, Ruby jumps on a plane...and into an extraordinary adventure.

Stolen bags, a runaway sister and a handsome American stranger sweep Ruby into a magical mystery tour across India. Amid fortresses, fortune-tellers and a whirlwind of weddings, she uncovers fascinating stories of love - lost and found.

But as the mysteries deepen, secrets are revealed that turn Ruby's life upside down. And what started as a journey to find her sister becomes a journey to find herself - and love - again.

A romantic fairytale 

This book is full of warmth, heartache, laughter, love, and magic. It’s a great read if you’re on holiday or you want to dream about somewhere exotic with beautiful scenery, lovely food and Great characters. I absolutely adore this writer. The narrator Victoria Fox is amazing. She makes all the characters come to life in the most beautiful and authentic way. I thoroughly enjoyed this Read

Magical mystery tour

Excellent story . Interesting , especially the tour round India , and enjoyable . A couple of nice twists in the finish bring the story to a HEA. Only regret is the use of different to when it should be different from !! The Americans never get it wrong ( personal niggle, nothing to detract from the quality of the story ).

A lovely summer listen

Having recently listened to Alexandra’s current books I thought I would give one of her older books a go and this one did not disappoint. Really made me want to book a trip to India! Loved all the characters and a great story too. Great narration by Victoria Fox too. Was a great escape while out on my dog walks!

Magical

This has to be my favourite love story. it's so beautiful with the magic of India as well. Jack is the guy we all dream of and thank goodness, it wasn't ruined with sappy, predictable storyline.

A heart warming story right to the end

i wasn't sure this was going to be for me getting into the first couple of chapters but it became a tollercoaster of emotions and I couldn't stop listening on. By half way i was in love with all the characters and such a fab ending! I'd definitely recommend

just lovely

This was soo lovely and heartwarming. I feel as if I have just been to India, enjoying the abundance of colours, flavours, music and romance. The love story was beautiful and the scenery complemented it perfectly. Victoria Fox, the narrator, was amazing as always with her beautifully soft and reassuring voice.
